Root [MetroPCS] [ROM][4.4.4]CARBON ROM Kitkat 4.4.4 for LG Optimus F6 [LOTS OF FIXES]

[OneShotGoGetter]

however, i may have just found another fix

Hey DM sorry bout, you know, anyway I generate earnings from my youtube and I don't have a lot right now however something is better than nothing can't withdrawal it without hitting threshold so it might take time but when I can it will probably be like $50 enough to get one from eBay so I'm kinda a last resort at this point due to unpredictableness of having money maybe someone could chip in to donation thread but I don't know.

 

[OneShotGoGetter]

Is it just me or is 'OK Google" not working for others. I think there's something wrong with the mic

"OK Google" is working great here.

I will advise that no one use Link2SD with this ROM as it causes Kernel crashes.

I would like to know though, how to get vibration to work, or whether anyone else is having issues with no vibration?

 

[OneShotGoGetter]

arent u from youtube

Yup [emoji1]

 

[JayzTwoDimes]

I'll end up donating my F6 once the contract ends (Oct.31) and probably get another F6 or a newer phone.

Did you ever end up sending Dm47021 your phone? This is ridiculous that he still hasn't received a donor

 

[JayzTwoDimes]

Can u help me?

Just look at my guide, I have all the info there for 12b version of this phone. Just flash DM's kernel over Hroark's camfix to get the camera working. Flash still won't work.

[OneShotGoGetter]

I NEED HELP CONNECTING TO WIFI WITH THIS ROM i rebooted my phone and everything.i have Lg optimus f6 metro with 1.27 GB storage please help

Are you CarbonRom rev2 or 3?

 

[OneShotGoGetter]

i think 3

I recommend you go to rev2 that is my daily driver no major issues pretty stable, please try downloading rev2 put it on your sdcard preferably in recovery mode wipe data, cache, dalvik, internal, and system. PLEASE please please report back with (hopefully positive) results because I wish to further help you until you resolve the problem. [emoji1]

You're probably entering the wrong network password. If you entered the wrong one and pressed 'connect' it saved the wrong password, and will continue to try to connect using that password. Try connecting to an open or different network, or go to settings and find the saved network, press the name, press 'forget' and reconnect with the correct password.

Yea you make some good points, I'd probably do Jayz method first and if that don't works try mine

Does Rev 2 have any issues with vibration, or was lack of vibration a problem from the start? I know the vibration intensity setting doesn't work, but my phone doesn't vibrate at all regardless of notification settings.

Yes there are vibration issues because in the original build vibration would cause massive reboots and black screens if you're familiar with cm11 same issues. Removing vibration fixed the issues.

fix the problem of recording video?

 

[OneShotGoGetter]

fix the problem of recording video?

I occurred same issue. I recommend you use this app. It's free it works perfectly and it records audio and you can choose your resolution up to 720p I believe.
Just download app here

Anybody have a link to the flashable zip that stops Google play services from running in the background? I know its in this thread somewhere. If I remember correctly it supposedly stops Google play services app from running its attempts at constant update retrys. U knw what lemme dig for a sec here I'll find er..... My bad, my bad I found it. I got it. Thanks, lol my bad.

I need help. I love carbon rom but i need to know what i can do to make it better im going to probably do the sd card hack but sometimes i would get low signal is there anyway i can boost it and also i dont like how the led runs when you get a notification charging ect. How can i limit that And how can i boost battery life i use my phone alot and i really love 4.4.4 and this is a really good rom its stable

You can turn LED off in options. Signal appears low if I remember correctly. As far as how many bars are showing as signal connection within you're status bars reading, you should be straight as far as actual signal. For instance till I pick up my WarpSync thursday... Hecks yeah!!!.... my currant device at this moment, the LG Leon running Cyanogenmod 12.1 is reading 3G and is actually unlimited speedy 4G lte. you might/are probably just seeing less bars but you're signal should be fine. Sometimes custom ROMs may show low signal bars, when not. Or may be reading something that's not actually happening like say.... 3G in status bar when you're really 4G. Or some other minor misreading or another for instance. Unless ofcourse you're speedy data is up or I'm missing the specifics on you're entire ordeal here. In that case my bad & I really recommend Greenify, which also holds higher and extentend options coupled with Xposed mod framework installer apk. IF you're not familiar with these two apps and they're functioning/s togeather check Xposedmod installer out on Google. And greenify is within exposed mod as an installable apk. & is also on playstore. Its not extreamily necessary by any means to use xposedmod to install xposedmod apks..... but I myself do. Choice is your'se but I'd check those two lil gems out if you don't already run Xposedmod and its involved apks. Its intention and overall design is geared twords customizing Vanilla/stock rooted ROMs with more themeing and customization options like a custom ROM usually offers. However, a lot of Xposedmods apks arent in playstore And there are some pretty sweet & handy tweaks within alot of its apks!

and install the new rev pack. solve the problem of installing camera hroark's camfix kernel. I have also now install the ov5693? or it is no longer needed?

my kernel supports ov5693 aswell,

Does partitioning you're SD card hurt the life of the SD card? I know swop does but what about just partitioning?
